- Violence had been normalised in the name of pleasure, at a heavy cost to women, but also to men...By the time we got to dessert, we'd been through the lack and expense of childcare facilities, more cuts in the lowest-paid jobs which are ever women's and the casual sexism in pop song, film and workplace. We were now bemoaning the ever-growing sway of the beauty, diet and cosmetic-surgery sectors.
- We have an abundance of rape and violence against women in this country and on this earth, though it's almost never treated as a civil rights or human rights issue, or a crisis, or even a pattern. Violence doesn't have a race, a class, a religion, or a nationality, but it does have a gender. - http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2013/02/201327114230765738.html
